Re: why is there no discussion about the firefighters ambushed at webster?

yeah i agree. But it was one guy who was an ex-con. psychos are something we expect. its like the jokers line in the dark knight paraphrasae "if a whole bus full of soldiers gets blown up nobody cares, its part of the program its what we expect, but if you kill one little mayor everyone just loses their mind" it's what is outside of our expectations of reality that effs us up. like kids killing kids in school, that messes with you.

Re: why is there no discussion about the firefighters ambushed at webster?

Kinda weird how he lived there for 12 years without causing any trouble and then just kills his sister and burns down the whole neighborhood and leaves a senseless note saying he likes to kill people and of course they find him dead. How did he get all those weapons being an ex-con?

There's something about this Bushmaster AR-15: Both Adam Lanza and William Spangler, the two gunmen in the Newtown and firefighter shootings, respectively, got their hands on the same make of semi-automatic, the .223 caliber rifle, pictured right. This popular sporting gun seems to be the weapon of choice for many a mass murderer

(Who makes this gun anyways, and is there any controversy about the company?)

With the national debate to stop gun violence via stricter gun laws gaining renewed urgency across the nation, private-equity firm Cerberus Capital Management said it was working on selling Freedom Group, a firearms company that it owns.

In recent years, many top-selling brands — including the 195-year-old Remington Arms, as well as Bushmaster Firearms and DPMS, leading makers of military-style semiautomatics — have quietly passed into the hands of a single private company. It is called the Freedom Group — and it is the most powerful and mysterious force in the American commercial gun industry today

Behind this giant is Cerberus Capital Management, the private investment company that first came to widespread attention when it acquired Chrysler in 2007.

A secretive Manhattan financier whose private equity firm owns the gunmaking Goliath that produces Bushmaster rifles put the armsmaker on the block Tuesday after the tragedy in Newtown struck too close to home.

Cerberus Capital Management founder Stephen Feinberg’s father lives in the Connecticut town where 26 schoolkids and staffers were slaughtered with a Bushmaster — and the dad, Martin Feinberg, said the massacre was “devastating.”

With Cerberus selling Freedom Group, what does that mean for the company? Will we have backdoor gun control, simply by lack of investment capitol in gun manufactures? Or is there a more complex game in play?

Where did this guy supposedly leave his 3 page note? Surely not in one of these fully-involved, flame-shooting houses, right? Extremely fishy. Kinda like the passports that survived plane crashes on 9/11.
